Happy Holidays everyone. I hope you are well, and have a lovely holiday with family and friends next week.

Has it been feeling like a retrograde mercury? Are you hitting walls. Three steps forward, five steps backwards? Thanks to Saturn, Uranus and Pluto, we're in their cross hairs and trying to get a lot done......well what can I say, good luck with that! Yet we also may be in total overload and feeling pressed to get too much done, and a feeling of time running out.

Well time is running out. The new year is about to begin. The past few years have been about us changing...2016 is about the world changing. Get your ducks in a row, pack a bag and keep it at the front door or the car trunk, cause we're about to launch a rocket of events and activities that are like a run away roller coaster. Which is why you are feeling panicked because you know subconsciously that there is very little time left for you to get your act together. This is a holiday season of breaking away from people, bonding with people, changing careers, changing your life for real, and getting serious about being "AUTHENTIC" within yourself. No more games, no more pretending, no more facades. It's the last gasp to get real, so take time for yourself, no matter how busy you are or feel, because starting in the new year, you probably won't have a lot of time to breathe.

I am sad to say Paris is the tip of the iceberg for the world. Explosions. Riots. Anger. Fighting.These negative energies are coming on strong next year. CHANGE for the world now, and change isn't handed over from the powerful to the not-so-powerful without a hell of a fight. But change it will, so get ready for power plays that will make your head spin.

But its not all bad. Yin Yang. The good is about AUTHENTICITY in people. No more crap. Being honest and real is all that will cut it. AUTHENTICITY: RELIABLE, DEPENDABLE, GENUINE and REALISTIC. Caring on a community level will grow. Bonding with people you trust and kicking the flakes to the curb will be necessary. Owning your origins as a Light Being will grow, as you come to truly know you are not alone, that there is a Creator and his "soldiers" who guide and guard us. Mystical experiences will become the norm. Angel sightings and communing will be happening. Dreams will be more vivid and prophetic as the veil between worlds becomes thinner and we are fully aware that the Cosmic in all of us is very real. We are connecting to source in a deep and meaningful way so we can send healing to the Earth and heal us all in the process. Spiritual Warriors ARISE. Your day is here. It's almost time to kick some ass and help this world be the paradise it was meant to be.

Are you ready? Are you eager to clean house and get rid of stuff on some kind of feverish level? Are you asking yourself if you are happy and if not how to change that? Are you surrounding yourself with kindred spirits or not. Who will have your back during the trying times coming if you hang with flakes?

Use this holiday time to connect with friends and family on an authentic level. End hostilities; make peace; be incredibly thankful for everything you have; be honest and reliable. Be a role model to others.

I know I've been off the grid for a while, watching the planets dance their dance. It amazes me how much they guide our lives and show us where we're going. Right now Mars and Venus are both in Libra, the home of Venus (or one of them). Love is in the air, though Mars is not really happy in lovey-dovey Libra, but with Venus by his side, his amorous nature is in full bloom and he is will to forego war for sex if he can. Mars is here till Jan 3rd. Globally this means a feeling of being trapped, stuck. Frustration rules the day. Mars entered Libra on the 12th, the day before the Paris bombings. When Mars enters Scorpio in January, it will be like an explosion of relief as energy moves forward and lots gets done, things move fast as the warrior is let out of his cage.

Yesterday Neptune, the ruler of spirituality is living at home in Pisces right now, and just went direct, so spiritual things are on track again, taking priority. Spiritual beliefs, practices and missions are encouraged, as you spiritual nature is your guide in the coming days. The connection to the Creator and Guides is strong. Get in touch. Ask for help and guidance.

Mercury moves into Sagittarius tomorrow, making our minds sharp and active, and on Sunday the Sun moves there too. Invigorating energy blossoms, but for one big glitch...Saturn is in Sagittarius too, and the next week should be full of more frustrations as Saturn always holds things back, while trying to build something solid and real. He has the bigger picture, our nature will be to take action and ask questions later...not a good move. Just keep plodding along, exercise to get rid of tensions, and know you are being prepared for the new.

Wednesday the 25th is the annual full moon in Gemini, opposing all the Sag planets for the day. Emotions are clear and clean and logical....but Saturn there could make it a sad day full over emotions, so thank goodness its in Gemini so it will keep some perspective while emotions are going south. The next day is Thanksgiving. Be thankful for family and friends. Make lists of all you have in your life, cherish it, be glad of it, and don't focus on what you don't have. The more thankful you are, the more likely good stuff is walking toward you.

I'm a glass is half full kind of person, and don't let myself get depressed for very long, but recently have been having a lot of negative thinking going on as I look at and try to recover from what has been a very hard couple of years. I sat myself down and said "why so blue Yvonne, surely there is something positive in all this?" and a little image jumped into my head of Saturn, whereupon I realized Saturn is opposing my natal Mercury in Gemini, making my mind see the negative more than the positive. This revelation perked me up. I realized its feeling dark, because we learn from the bad stuff. How can I regroup, make things better, different, etc. vs "Oh woe is me." and I felt better. Now I know I need to see the problems, face them and do something positive to change my life. Pain makes us pay attention, and if we focus on the negative we are faced with what we don't want, and asked to ask ourselves what do we want that will make us happy with our life. I'm working on a plan, and I hope you are too because it seems like everyone I know has been going through very tough times also. Be good to yourself. The Universe ALWAYS loves you. Loving yourself is your duty and responsibility. Find ways to be happier. I know you can do it.

Happy Holidays to everyone, and bless this world in your mind, your prayers and your heart. We need all the good energy we can muster right now. The new adventure, lasting about 5 years, is about to begin. Let's build a new and better world!!
